Ace , grey Aro here. Tbh i have a lot in "currently reading" (lists got wiped out so now that's all up to god to fish out again) but I don't have anything I'm looking forward to at the moment or I'm particularly following. What's notable recently is that I read Winning Shot, a baseball webtoon, so it triggered some revisiting and I reread some spor......   1 reply

Can't with people who make all the effort fr....i couldn't even be bothered to make an account for 4 years before the ads came in and the anon comment feature got removed   reply

I'm going on a worldbuilding workshop soon, i wanna try   1 reply

Very grown adult, never got drunk, I can drink but I don't really like alcohol at all. Never outgrew the "child" palate   reply

Hmm to be honest, this is not about AITA or being wrong or right. I don't know your sister, I don't know you either. In truth, understanding her perspective or where she comes from doesn't even matter here--you don't have to understand her or make compromises because of this or that. It seems you're used to being the caregiver, to giving even when ......   1 reply

I'm a layman at this but I have encountered this theory roughly before though i don't know about this topic much. I agree with it not because the author isn't important or relevant to understanding a text but because author's intentions ≠ meaning. The part about how "it belongs entirely to the reader" to me is because everyone will interpret a te......   reply

Yes, there are. But to see it is to be genuine yourself too. For younger gens, they're still navigating life. One thing I've noticed with the younger gen is a much more hypercritical awareness of perfection and idealism. And because of it, judgement can be, feel and be dealt with especially brutal. "Because you're/you're not like this, then you're ......   reply

When i was a child i had a cringy email name like rockmawurld....i lived through the millenial emo period otherwise I've only ever had a consistent username (yes, the one i am using, and yes it's been years lmao). While i have some others they're not cringey i think.   reply

Properly communicate with your bf about your needs. If you feel neglected and disrespected that already says a lot about your boundaries being crossed. And please, watch how people behave, watch their actions. Watch how your bf reacts to YOUR needs. A lot of people have already said it here. Regardless of cheating or anything else   reply

It may be legal now but it lacks ethical usage. proper laws/sanctions for those things in the current age are severely lacking/missing, as the current ones are not equipped to handle more complex problems. I recognize the fuckers behind genAI and those who want to promote it. It's not individual people who mostly want to exploit others (though yes ......   reply

I had a senior in 7th/8th grade who was too cool. Cool girls are something else   reply

Yes, I have (though i don't have such a friend like yours no offense lol). Had a fairly recent friendship breakup around late 2024/early 2025. We've been friends for 14 years. Rather than regretting the choice, i guess i regret the way i handled it or how it happened. But i made peace with it because i made that choice for a reason, however faulty.......   1 reply

No....Idk, I just can't seem to idolize. I grew up at a time when hollywood was still a craze and I tried (like very early Lady gaga), but yeah I just cannot follow people that religiously or adoringly. Though to be honest I just feel sorry for a lot of them. Like Britney   reply

Neither. I mean, people COULD do that with religion -- but the framing of the choice boxes or limits the nature and behavior as to why we turn to it. Broadly speaking religion is just one of the many ways people exercise an internal sense of faith and self-actualization   reply

OP, there are far, far more things you can do/be that are truly pathetic. It's just never liking or having sex. If that's terrifying--i am perfectly fine and happy. Believe me, I'm asexual. And you too, are asexual. It's called being sex repulsed due to trauma.   reply

People mistake karma as some sort of reward and punishment--it's not. Karma, spiritually, is about cause and effect. Your karma is weaved by your past actions even beyond this lifetime, that's experienced in the present. It's like a river. One experience at a point upstream has shaped a certain direction, experience and flow at a certain downstream......   reply

I don't consider myself a red flag, but i probably have "red flag" things about me? People hate on avoidants, i lean towards that. I ghost on texts and stuff--it takes me a long time to reply. Depends on the reason; sometimes mentally not there, sometimes i'm not sure what to say, sometimes it's difficult. I could be a people pleaser / passive aggr......   reply

Whether korean / japanese isekai you're not gonna see model parenting or family dynamics in any of these countries lmao. Esp if it's korean, because in real life its the opposite -- daughters are like dirt compared to sons and they do all the effort to "earn" their place so in fantasy its flipped over. That's why "earning" or working hard for affec......   1 reply
